Valentines Shmalentines

I guess I need to get back on the horse. I haven't really felt like posting anything since we had to put Toby down, but I'm not ready to talk about it yet.

It's Valentines day. If you didn't know it is probably too late to run out and grab something and pretend that you were "acting" like you forgot. Sorry bud.

Valentines day is one of those days that I find annoying. Yes, it has a lot to do with all of the commercials that try to suggest that you are a bad person if you don't buy your girl something shiny with lots of diamonds. It has become a marketing tool much like Mother's Day and Christmas. Beyond that though I find it humorous that we have a day set aside to let somebody know that you love them. If you are in a relationship I hope that you already know how the other person feels about you.

I don't object to Valentines day completely though. It serves it's purpose for those who may be struggling or distant. It does provide one day a year to set difference aside and remember why you are with the person.

I feel bad for Wendi really. She is awesome and I know that she knows that I know that she knows, you know? But I don't buy the flowers and bling for her to prove that I love her. But I hope that I make it pretty obvious the rest of the days in the year.

If not here goes. Wendi...I like you....a lot! You are the kettle to my pot. You are the ice in my Mountain Dew. You are the batteries to my remote control. You are the helium to my balloon. Thanks for being such a cool wife. Everybody is sooo jealous of me and they should be :-)
